1860/70 census lookup - Bostwick

I have a Joseph Bostwick 1825-1878 from Ny in my tree.

I'm trying to document his wife's family. She was Mary Moore b. 1838 (married in 1856 in MI). Notes passed to me say she was born in Indiana, and I'm having a hard time finding her family...

Mary, Joseph and most of their family died in Memphis in 1878 during the Yellow Fever epidemic. I'm hoping the 1860 or 1870 census will either confirm or denied info that was posted as to her place of birth.

Could sks take a peak at the 1860 or 1870 census for Memphis and see if her dob and place of birth is listed...

Joseph L. Bostwick b. 1825 NY (age 35 in 1860)
Mary M. Bostwick b. 1838 (IA or OH)
Charles M. b.1857 (TN)
Frank b. 1859 (TN)

Tks in advance
